Artist History Copper Dalton has been together for more than six years, its members creating music for much longer. Unlike many bands, Copper Dalton spent more than half of this time writing, recording, and re-writing songs, with the aim of discovering what was to be their signature sound and focus - the emotive strains of intelligent lyrics matched with strong melodies and catchy choruses. The band released its self-titled, self-produced EP in August of 1998.
